Hello and thanks for watching this video, I hope you enjoy it! Apologies about the small glitches on the Galactic Map, some of it isn't as perfect as I would like it and there's a couple of issues with it like at 15:47, I have the Turing battle occurring on Meridia instead (which is why there's a glitchy black hole). I went a bit overboard with the map, its basically a massive file that I could zoom into for different scenes - worked well at the start while editing but near there end when I was adding in more and more planets into the finished map it ended up pretty much freezing my computer when even previewing it 😬. This video ended up taking my computer 43 hours to render!!! So I thought the annoyances are not too bad to torture myself again 😅 Hope it doesn't ruin the overall experience too much!
@@mrj4990 Just advice coming from a channel with 8 subs. everybody listen to our role model lmao. the guy who looks like he smoked a pack a day for 20 years im sure you have beautiful voice🤣
@@mrj4990 Yeah my voice is something that I have been trying to improve and its obviously not perfect yet, and yeah, its my presentation voice I guess you could say as opposed to how I speak normally. Hopefully I can make it better in future videos!
Destroying Meridias super colony has been my favourite thing about this game so far. The shrieker attack once you completed the mission was so much fun
Watching the shriekers pile up in the sky and rain down was so satisfying. Meridia and its aftermath might be my favorite gaming memory of all time, because normally-chill friends finally cracked into rage or terror, but morale made sure we always won in the end.
Loved this recap! I recommend making a timelapse of the changes of the galactic war map as a separate video. With limited or no commentary to show from a map perspective how the war has evolved.
@lileofficial4273 ah okay well now there's two people. I thought about doing it my self but my channel is more meant for the music I create and less so about helldiver's and not mention I can't recall all of what happened off top of my head 😂
I really hope they make a "horde" mode or "extraction" mode where we are really swarmed, have limited uses per stratagem and the goal is to simply survive and get to the pelican, the lore could be the extracted Helldivers have critical info on the enemies.
Cool idea, could also just make the critical info an item that you have to hold and extract with like the things you get from fortresses on super helldive.
I really enjoyed this. This is very well written and well edited despite the hiccups here and there. Please don't mind some of the negative feedback in the comments too much. Stylistically speaking, your narration is completely valid as is. There's always room for improvement obviously, but you recapped the year with remarkable efficiency. Only 20 minutes, but all major plot points were covered. There's just enough of the satirical humor without doing too much of it and ruining the bit. There's excellent pacing between developments on all war fronts. And to top it all off, all major unanswered questions were highlighted at the end (GREAT way to send it off, very satisfying!!!). The only point of feedback I have about your narration is that it can lack clarity of enunciation at certain points (it's still completely legible though). All in all, this recap was such a great fucking idea. It really made me appreciate all that's happened with this game this past year. Thanks for spending the time to put it together! Happy new year!
Thanks for the kind comments! I am glad you enjoyed it! And thanks for the feedback too and how detailed it is. With the other comments its always good to listen to criticism, it helps me try new things I haven't though of before! But yeah ultimately I make videos for my own enjoyment, and it's gonna be impossible to please everyone, so selfishly I'll make myself enjoy the videos first! Happy new year!
Thank you, very useful Can you do this recap again a few months from now? With the start again up to whatever events occur in the future. I think it would be cool
All factions had different enemies appearing throughout our timeline. For example: Bugs- behemoth charger +spore charger, impalers, alpha commander, and shriekers Bots - chromed out bots, jet brigade, at-at tanks, reinforced scout strider, factory strider, and gunships.(guess the hulk counts when they had that op cannon) I’m not sure if that was intended to be left out
Great comment! Yeah I glossed over a lot of the smaller variants just to make the timeline a bit easier to digest, but the Spore Charger was one I actually forgot about! It was quite a big change and helped the terminids quite a bit (It appeared in June )
Thanks! That choice was done in June, you're right I didn't have it in the video! It was a choice between saving children or obtaining the anti mine weapons, and with the children being saved Arrowhead made a donation to Save the Children. I was a bit torn but skipped it in the summary as Its flirting with a bit of metagaming and had minimal impact in the galactic war apart from a weapon that was constantly not obtained anyway! Here's the cute tweet upon saving the children - x.com/helldivers2/status/1801634193941618808/photo/1
I really like the approach you took here. No disrespect intended for other recap videos, but I much prefer very minimal role-playing and just telling the story of the game, and including the in-game broadcasts and dialogue is a huge plus. This'll be THE video i send people who want to catch up on the story.
Currently I think we the Helldiver Corps might be able to on an Offensive but at great cost to other Planets also there is this weird Enemy lurking Codenamed J.O.E.L who seems to. Control the Narrative of the War.

Fix your voice, the drawn out way you end sentences in a lowering tone is so annoying. You can't possibly talk like that normally right?

@ and you think every person on TH-cam is vying for subs? What kind of loser are you man

The black hole was sick
For me and my 3 friends, Meridia was our Malevelon Creek. Hope we get more cool events like that for all the factions going forward
And the bomb juice jump pack was also very fun

That would be great to see. The map that I made for this video is a huge resource sapper though so would take a very very long time to render!!
I hear both Halo and Stellaris music in background, perfect
thank you its about time some one started cataloging the war so far
Someone is, Super Earth Data Archive I think was the channel name
@lileofficial4273 ah okay well now there's two people. I thought about doing it my self but my channel is more meant for the music I create and less so about helldiver's and not mention I can't recall all of what happened off top of my head 😂
Check out super earth data archive. The channel post abo out every three days. The person that runs the channel is truly a super citizen
@@skehsep9604the data archive is an amazing project, totally deserves a watch if you like this
A nice video before I go to sleep lets go
Been playing almost daily since release. Crazy to see how its changed in just a year! Excited for year 2, Divers!
I really hope they make a "horde" mode or "extraction" mode where we are really swarmed, have limited uses per stratagem and the goal is to simply survive and get to the pelican, the lore could be the extracted Helldivers have critical info on the enemies.
Cool idea, could also just make the critical info an item that you have to hold and extract with like the things you get from fortresses on super helldive.
But that exists in the 15 min forms
Nice! HD2’s release to now has gone by so fast I’ve forgotten some of our efforts. Kudos!

I just got off the frontline from all factions good video to watch b4 I go to sleep
I really like how everything happens in real time. It feels...energetic. CONNECTED.
Nice recap also love the stellaris music
0:00 Special Military Operations
9:45 2nd Galactic War
Is that Stellaris OST I hear in the BGM? Good choice helldiver
Thank you, very useful

@@natiscool that would be a great video idea! Going over the timeline of when new enemies arrived 🙏🏽
Thats awesome. Well done recap.
Just curious when the helldivers saved the childrens?
Did I miss it in the video?
Thanks!

My proofing ground was Touring with some high level divers. But Hellmire will always be my Malevalon Creek
There can be no rest until the enemies of mankind are purged from every last corner of the galaxy.
For the glory of super earth 🫡
Let's see what happens to the Helldivers and Super Earth now that they have received Helghast reinforcements.
We're losing the galactic war and its getting worse. We haven't gone on a sustained offensive in months
110% and that's why I'm excited. At long last, something more Gears of War/Halo than Gears of War and Halo!
Currently I think we the Helldiver Corps might be able to on an Offensive but at great cost to other Planets also there is this weird Enemy lurking Codenamed J.O.E.L who seems to. Control the Narrative of the War.
Awsome video
watching this is making me cry look at what we have done I'm proud of all helldivers
If only helldivers 2 came to Xbox too, oh well sucks to suck for xbox players, but sucks to suck even more for Super Earth.
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SO THATS WHAT HAPPENED TO MERIDIA?!??
you basically said ah fuck it just initiate protocol Exterminatus
Enunciation is hard to listen to. Good video, but it was kinda difficult to listen to. Don't give up, though. I'd like to see more from you.
Super Earth is like America 🇺🇸 and Cyber Stan is like Russia 🇷🇺
God the way you end each sentence with the decrescendo tone and drawn out last syllable is insufferable.
go listen to ai commentators if you dont want someone to breath while talking
@ Ai commentators are the worst, this guys cadence in which he speaks is second worst
Why listen then?
@@quinnpaton8852Because we're not here for him we're here for helldivers
@ this was my first and last time sir, only made it through 45 seconds lol
I like the name
